🇮🇪☘🥃🧚‍♀️ Summer flowers and bees held by St. Modomnóc of Ossory on Ireland🧚‍♂️🥃☘🇮🇪

In olden times, it was the custom that only by the exchange of gold, gift, barter or loan could a beehive be bought or sold. The old people had many laws and beliefs to do with the bees, called "bee judgements". Under the law of the free Feni which was written and enforced by the poets who became Brehon judges, if bees took nectar from another person's land, it was considered trespassing!
